WHAT A TRIP! Muppet messenger Scooter (Jerry Lee) clumsily passes on a news flash to the news anchor. Jerry was the hardworking head man of the skit, leading a supportive group of seniors MAYFETE MUPPET SKIT WINS Seniors The class of '89 enjoyed their second Mayfete victory with a heart-warming rendition of “The Muppet Show.” The energetic opening scene of chickens, Kermit (Jason Saffir), and Fozzie Bear (Courtney Hergert) dancing and singing to the introducion song was voted as the best scene in the skit. The plot of the skit was to track down the murderer of one of the guests, Mr. Rogers (Matt Gates). Statler and Waldorf (Brian Zindel and James Yu), and the Pigs in Space scene (with Aaron Hobbs as Darth Vader and Becky Conrad as Miss Piggy) were two very comical scenes. A Muppet News Flash introduced Cassondra Rutherford as Miss Kitty from Mr. Rogers’ “Land of Make Believe” who proceeded to sing Stray Cats Strut with three back-up cats. Singing and chopping cook, the Swedish Chef (Kristin Scheible) and the wabbit-hunting Elmer Fudd (Chris Fountain) entertained the audience until an incriminating shot from Fudd's gun made the cast realize that he was the assassin. However, Mr. Rogers appeared healthy and fit thanks to a bullet-proof cardigan. The entire cast celebrated, singing It's Such a Good Feeling to Know You're Alive and presented the class gift to the queen. “Do I look pretty?” - Senior Becky Conrad as Miss Piggy HIIHIITYA! Miss Piggy (Becky Conrad) gives Captain Link (Ross Swanson) a smack in response to an insult. The actors got into their parts: Ross wore pink tights, and Becky increased her cup size by three ALL TOGETHER NOW Scooter (Jerry Lee), Kermit (Jason Saffir), Mr Rogers (Matt Gates), the Swedish Chef (Kristin Scheible), and Elmer Fudd (Chris Fountain) begin the final song and dance. The last line was sung This is what we call the senior class!

RUN FOR THE BORDER Juniors Swept into the dream of Burt Reynolds, the junior class performed an adventure-filled skit. In the dream, Burt and Loni Anderson (Matt Cole and Jenny Fernie) raced for the border while finding specific objects along the way in a competition against Charlie’s Angels (Heather Dorrell, Angela Smith, and Susan Carney). The trip was broadcast by a hip newscaster, Robert Snodgrass. The racers encountered interesting characters throughout the skit, including Geraldo, the Bradys, Ponch and John from the TV show “CHiPs,” and a mexican border patrol. The Club Macombo dancers displayed talent, and the gangs, the Cruds and the Blips, crept into many of the skit’s scenes. Las Vegas Club Macombo singers David Ludwig, Mindy Warren, and Brian Dove lept into the hearts of the judges and were awarded the title of best scene in their skit. It ended with a rousing round of Win, Lose, or Draw, and the answer was Poco Loco Junior Mayfete. SSS SS SS SS ee eee “No! No! Not my nose!” - Junior Chase Stewart as Geraldo TOO COOL Junior rappers were the Cruds and the “Blips that Burt Reynolds and Loni Anderson (Matt Cole and Jenny Fernie) encountered. The gangs gave them the two colored bandanas that they needed. 26 Student Life CHIPS AHOY John and Ponch (Dara Partovi and Josh Snyder) look questioningly at Charlie’s Angels. The two cops made their entry on children’s big wheels to the delight of the audience. DRESSED FOR SUCCESS Charlie’s Angels, Angela Smith, Susan Carney, and Heather Dorrell make themselves noticed. In the hilarious slow motion race scene at the end, Angela fell down.

TIME FOR FORMAL FUN A Touch of Class The anticipation was almost as exciting as the night itself. Buying a dress, renting a tuxedo, ordering a corsage or boutonniere, and figuring out where to eat for the evening, were all parts of getting ready for the big night - PROM! “A Touch of Class” was the theme for prom and it was held at the Melody Lane Ballroom. Having the prom in a ballroom was a deterrant to renting a hotel room after the dance. The ballroom was decorated in balck and silver, with flowers on tables to add some spice. The music was provided by a group called The Illustrations who played a variety of songs throughout the night. There also were many goodies to munch on when one was tired of dancing, and Dynamic Photography Studios took professional pictures of couples so they could always remember the night. As the evening began people were off in many directions. Some went to restaurants such as Atwaters, The Harborside, The Charthouse, and Maxis, while others ate at home or had picnics in a park. Transportation, as usual, was very diverse. Popular methods were limos, rented cars, borrowing a car, or taking a carriage or pedicycle. There were also many after dance activities such as renting hotel rooms, going to the beach, and going to a friend’s house for dessert. No matter what people did for prom, it was a night to remember. SAY CHEESE Prom dates Tonya Presley and Alek Orloff enjoy their night with big smiles. Tonya and Alek were wearing black and white; colors that were very popular. WATERFRONT RIDE Senior women and junior guys Shawna Lee, Jeff Bonny, Tove Petty, and Chris Burdick take a ride on pedicycles along the waterfront. The girls blindfolded their dates and took them to dessert. BLACK, WHITE, AND SMILES Seniors Jennifer Kelsey, Tom Chien, Jean Lee, and Scott Mil ler use prom as a time for socializing. Tom and Scott took their dates to The Harborside for an enjoyable dinner. GROUPIES Senior prom goers Tove Petty, Brian Loftus, Jill Kallis, Shawna Lee, John Bartlett, Amy Scotty, Craig Peebles, and Jill Krogseth pose for a big group photo. This was one of the last chances for the seniors to be all together as a group before graduation.
